Hard NOC Live from SDCC 2016: Gene Luen Yang

Just in time for the release of DC Comics’ New Super-Man #2, check out our conversation with Gene Luen Yang, recorded live from the floor of San Diego Comic-Con 2016!

Gene tells Keith about the origins of the Super-Man from Shanghai, and how he originally wanted no part in creating the Chinese Superman. They also talk about Superman-as-Asian-American metaphor and the politics of modern China before extolling the virtues of chubby Chinese kids and previewing the next Secret Coders book for First Second and his work on a non-fiction graphic novel about basketball.
